A long time ago my dermatologist prescribed me some kind of benzol peroxide wash to use on my shoulders and back that worked like a charm. After I ran out, I went back to using regular bodywash and that alone seemed to keep my back acne at bay. Then I got on some unholy generic brand of birth control, and within three days my shoulders and back broke out like never before. It's been four months since I've been off the pill, and my back has never quite cleared up. I happened to pick this up just to try it out, and I was floored at how much my shoulders/back improved over the course of a week. It worked fast at first, but now it just kind of seems to be okay-ish.

I DO NOT HAVE SERIOUS ACNE PROBLEM LIKE SOME OTHER PEOPLE DO (ONLY HAPPENS ONCE A WHILE). HOWEVER, I DECIDED TO TRY THIS PRODUCT. 1. IT CLEANS VERY WELL, 2. THE SMELL IS NOT IRRATATING. AFTER I RINSE I BODY, I CAN HARDLY SMELL IT, 3. EASY TO RINSE OFF. THE BEST WAY TO USE IT: 1. LEATHER IT UP AND WASH YOU BODY, 2. MOST IMPORTANTLY, "LET IT SET FOR 3 OR 4 MINUTES". ALLOWS THE SALICYLIC ACID TO "DOES IT JOB" (IT IS GOING TO TAKE OFF SOME DEAD SKIN AND EXFLOLIATES AT THE SAME TIME), 3. DO NOT USE IT EVERYDAY UNLESS YOU HAVE REALLY SERIOUS ACNE PROBLMS ON THE CHEST, ARMS, OR BACK. WHY NOT USE IT EVERYDAY? WELL, THE CON ABOUT IT: "IF I USE IT EVERY DAY, IT DRIES MY SKIN". I AM SUPER SURPRISED BECAUSE I HAVE VERY OILY SKIN!!!! AND, THIS PRODUCT STILL DRIES ME OUT. PUZZLE........ I ORDERED 4 OR 5 BOTTLES IN SEPTEMBER. AND, HAVE BEEN VERY HAPPY ABOUT THE RESULT. TRY IT. I THINK YOU GUYS WILL LIKE IT.

There are breakouts from time-to-time on my back; but then it seems getting out-of-control. I see a dermatologist and she gives me a list of "allergic-treatment" products; and she specifies this body wash. It takes a couple times before you can see the results. After that, I use it 3-4 times a week because of the dried skin and the "non-scented" smell. The smell actually isn't bad at all, it just does not have a regular "body wash scent." Highly recommend to buy!

I got this product shortly after a few pimples started popping up on my back, arms and chest. However, I might as well have not used it at all and it really wouldn't have made much of a difference. The product is slightly drying, and if rubbed in too much made the area red. Also, the smell slightly bothers me. It's not bad, but the soapy scent could've been better. The good part was that it helped keep my back and chest clean and a bit more under control.

This is the only body wash that has cleared the blemishes on my back and shoulders.

I use this prodcut after my gym sessions which is almost every morning. At night I use a antibacterial bodywash from dial. so far not so bad I don't ge the breakouts on my back like I used too. I just have scars now only if it could clear that. Iam still in the search for scaring. To prevent breakouts and stop breakouts as they are occuring this is the product for sure. People on here they used it on there face iam gonna try it I dont think my face wash from the same company is doing a effective job

I love this stuff. I've been using it for years and people always tell me that my skin is super soft. It doesn't dry me out and my skin is always smooth.

Works fine. If I have a small pimple and i wash with the soap the pimple seems to go away pretty fast. It smells good and lathers well.

This is good for acne prone skin but can dry the skin a little bit. The smell is not really unpleasant, but it's not grreat either.

I've never had a Neutrogena product I didn't like!
